Ryan was absolutely great with Yuffie. She can be a bit of a handful at times and he made her feel right at home. Would absolutely leave her with him again.

I had to do a last minute booking because my first floor flooded, so it wasn’t safe for anyone to be in the house. Ryan took my cat and dog in the night time. They had an awesome stay. They were so happy in the pictures. Ryan communicated very well with me and was very friendly.

Ryan has kept Gracie several times now and she comes home relaxed and happy every time! He is our first choice anytime we have to leave long enough to get a sitter!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
